CALL FOR DEMONSTRATIONS

The Northern European Association for Language Technology (NEALT)
invites proposals for demonstrations at its bi-annual conference on
human language and speech technologies: NoDaLiDa 2015 will be held
between May 11 and May 13, 2015 on the campus of the University of
Vilnius, Lithuania.  Please mark your calendars.

CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS

As part of the main conference, there will be three invited keynotes:
+Kevin Knight, ISI, University of Southern California, USA
+Catherine Pelachaud, CNRS, TELECOM Paris Tech, France
+Sebastian Riedel, University College London, UK

Preceding the main conference, on Monday, May 11, there will be four
topical workshops:

+ 4th workshop on NLP for Computer Assisted Language Learning (NLP4CALL)
+ Semantic resources and semantic annotation for Natural Language Processing 
and the Digital Humanities
+ Innovative Corpus Query and Visualization Tools
+ Constraint Grammar - Methods, Tools and Applications

Workshops will issue individual call for papers in January and will
have a closing date for submissions in March.

SUBMISSIONS  

NoDaLiDa addresses all aspects of speech recognition and synthesis,
natural language processing, and computational linguistics, including
work in closely related neighbouring disciplines (such as, for example,
linguistics or psychology) that is sufficiently formalized or applied
to bear relevance to speech and language technologies.  

We invite submissions for software or resource demonstrations, e.g. of
systems, interfaces, infrastructures, data collections, or annotations.
Demonstration submissions should outline the nature and scope of what
will be demonstrated, including sufficient detail to allow evaluation
of its validity, quality, and relevance to the NoDaLiDa community and
topics of interest (see above).

Demonstration papers accepted for presentation at the conference will
be included in the NoDaLiDa 2015 proceedings, and published as part of the
NEALT Proceedings Series by Linköping University Electronic Press.
The proceedings will be publicly available in the ACL Anthology: 
http://aclweb.org/anthology-new/

As part of the main conference, demonstrations will be presented parallel
to the poster session(s), where each demonstration will have available
(at least) a table and screen, as well as space for an overview
poster. In case there are technical needs beyond power and (wireless)
network access, these must be specified as part of the submission.

SCHEDULE

+ Monday, March 23, 2015: Submission of Papers
+ Monday, April 6, 2015: Notification of Acceptance
+ Monday, April 13, 2015: Camera-Ready Manuscripts
+ Monday, May 11, 2015: Pre-Conference Workshops

[Moses-support] Error while compiling Moses v3.0 on Cygwin

2015-03-10 Thread Muhammad Danial Raza
Hello,

I have a 32-bit Cygwin on a 64-bit windows machine. I have followed the
following steps to compile moses:

   - Compiled boost using the following commands:
  - *cd ~/mosesdecoder/boost_1_55_0/*
  -
  - *./b2 -j8 -q --prefix=$PWD --libdir=$PWD/lib64 --without-context
  --layout=system link=static install || echo FAILURE*
  - *--without-context *because Boost.Context is not supported on
  cygwin and also it is not required by moses. (Reference
  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.nlp.moses.user/10701)
   - Secondly, I used the following command to compile moses:
  -
  - *./bjam --with-boost=~/mosesdecoder/boost_1_55_0 -j8*
  - Attached is the output and the build log

Any help in this regard would be appreciable.

Regards,
Muhammad Danial Raza
$ ./bjam --with-boost=~/mosesdecoder/boost_1_55_0 -j8

[Moses-support] Couldn't use --working-dir of mert-moses.pl

2015-03-10 Thread 付彬
Hi everyone:

  I try to use option of --working-dir  in mert-moses.ini, but it always 
existed error after first tuning of mert, my error information are as follows:

  ERROR: Failed to run '/home/fubin/moses/work/mert-work5/extractor.sh'. at 
mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl line 1600.

  1)  my instruction: nohup nice mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl 
--decoder-flags=-threads 8 --working-dir=/home/fubin/moses/work/mert-work5 
data/fr-en2006/dev/dev2006.true.fr data/fr-en2006/dev/dev2006.true.en 
mosesdecoder/bin/moses work/train/model/moses.ini --mertdir=mosesdecoder/bin/ 
 work/outfile/mertstart.out

  --working-dir=/home/fubin/moses/work/mert-work5 is a file name and path that 
I named.

 2) Those files existed in my mert-work5:

 extract.err  extract.out  filtered/
filterphrases.outrun1.dense   run1.out 

 extractor.sh features.listfilterphrases.err
run1.best100.out.gz  run1.moses.ini   

 3) When we run extractor.sh automatically, it couldn't found run1.scores.dat 
and run1.features.dat. Strangely these file would be produced when I didn't 
give explicitly.

Who can help me solve this problem? Thank you !

Best regards

Re: [Moses-support] Couldn't use --working-dir of mert-moses.pl

2015-03-10 Thread Tom Hoar
The several arguments are positional arguments OR named arguments, which 
can be confusing. Full paths often solve problems. Also, not sure if the 
equal sign causes problems. So, try this:

nohup nice mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl \
   --decoder-flags -threads 8 \
   --working-dir /home/fubin/moses/work/mert-work5 \
   --input full-path/data/fr-en2006/dev/dev2006.true.fr \
   --refs full-path/data/fr-en2006/dev/dev2006.true.en \
   --decoder full-path/mosesdecoder/bin/moses \
   --config full-path/work/train/model/moses.ini \
   --mertdir full-path/mosesdecoder/bin/  work/outfile/mertstart.out

 Hi,

 The current release is listed as a bunch of separate files, which is a

 Would it be possible to get the v3 release packaged up as a simple

 an rpm.

Hi Lane

There are scripts in contrib to create an rpm. They are for V2 so might need an 
update...

Cheers - Barry

[Moses-support] Summer Internship Positions at FBK (Trento, Italy)

2015-03-10 Thread marco turchi
(Sorry for multiple posting)

Are you a *MS or a PhD student*? Are you interested in carrying out *research
on NLP* during the summer? Are you excited to spend few summer weeks in a
nice city in the *middle of the Alps*?

*WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU!!!*

The Human Language Technology Machine Translation (HLT-MT) group at
Fondazione Bruno Kessler (Trento, Italy) is happy to announce the
availability of internships for MA/MS and PhD students interested in
carrying out research projects on Machine Translation and Automatic Speech
Recognition during our *2015 summer internship program*.

The *Summer Internship Program *(
http://hlt.fbk.eu/summer-internship-call-2015) is an exciting opportunity
for students pursuing their graduate thesis to enrich their scientific
background by working directly with researchers from NLP. Together with
her/his adviser, the successful student candidate will focus on a specific
language technology topic. The topics are chosen such that the
implementation, the experiments and the analysis of results are carried out
over a few weeks period.

Motivated students with a valuable curriculum in various Natural Language
Processing topics are invited to submit their application before *April 30,
2015 *following the appropriate link on the Summer Internship Program page.

At application stage, the candidate will be required to *i) *submit her/his
cv; *ii)* indicate a work that represent her/him; *iii)* express
her/his preference between machine translation and automatic speech
recognition (applying for both topics is allowed). Specific projects in the
preferred area will be proposed to selected candidates.

For all accepted students, lodging at the university campus, meals and
transport expenses (limited contribution) will be sponsored by the HLT-MT
group.
